Yesterday as we were driving home from Seattle, I took a slight detour and instead of driving on the freeway, we went over Beacon Hill and south.
As we drove, we saw a woman covered head to toe in a black burkha. Only her eyes were visible. I told the girls to look out the window.
"What religion do you think she is?", I asked them.
"Ninja?" answered my nine year old treasure.
I sputtered and then I laughed and then I explained that no, being a ninja was not a religion but a life choice. A very cool one, but no, not a religion.

Hi YA!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Ninja is more of a state of mind. Have you seen the Burkini website?
Don't laugh, Ladies don't even have to wax their moustache, never mind shave the legs, to go the beach!
They just might be on to something.
